Barber Cut Dublin is proud to present Ireland’s first ever barber festival and educational conference in the Opium Rooms on Wexford Street this Sunday.

Founded by Dublin barber Sam Donnelly and event organiser Keiron Black, this event is a first of its kind in Ireland.

A festival style exhibition bringing the best in barbering education to Ireland. We've got 5 pairs of tickets to be won to the launch party on Saturday with tickets for the festival the next day.

Featuring some of the biggest international names in the business of barbering, men’s hairdressing and grooming, Barber Cut Dublin will be the largest gathering of celebrity barbers seen before in Ireland. Supported by “Dublin – A Breath of Fresh Air,” the festival-style day long event will showcase all aspects of traditional and modern barbering by some of the world’s most talented professionals.

The conference aims to increase technical ability and develop creative excellence amongst the barbering industry. On the day, attendees will experience some of the world’s most skilful barbers such as Schorem (NL), Andrew of Andrew Does Hair (U.S), Donnie Hawley (U.S), and Menspire (UK)* who will share their years of knowledge and expertise of barbering to motivate and inspire those of all ages and levels of experience within the industry.

Justin Coghlan, one of the four co-founders of the Movember Foundation, a men’s health movement that began in Australia in 2003 and is now a global charity raising money and awareness to fund breakthrough research and support services for men’s health, will also be speaking at the event. Justin will be providing attendees with an insight in to the phenomenal achievements of the Movember Foundation which to date has inspired over four and a half million moustaches, raised over €516 million in donations and funded over 1,000 programmes in 21 countries.

On the day, the Life Time Achievement Award, one of the most prestigious global awards to ever be handed to a barber, will be presented by Schorem. The Life Time Achievement Award is something very highly regarded in the barbering trade as it recognises the creative contributions of outstanding artistic significance and customer service to the barbering industry.
